Does liking shemales make you gay?

So being attracted to a tgirl definitely doesn't make you gay. In the past couple weeks, the guys who have tried to pick me up have been a regular looking young black guy, a big white guy who looked like he should be in the UFC, a couple average middle-aged guys, a kinda emo guy, some stoner with a camo hat and a beard, a really well-dressed black guy in his 40s, and a gray-haired psychology professor. These guys all seemed straight. There's only been one gay acting guy hitting on me the past 3 times I went out, and he was just drunk and horny.

But the thing is, the clubs I go to would generally be considered gay clubs, and probably half the people there are gay, but most of the people who are interested in me seem straight. And those are the people I'm attracted to, too, even though I'm not really hooking up with them.

So I don't know if you want to consider yourself gay or not, but don't worry that you're going to turn into some prissy queen just because you like tgirls. That's not the way it works.

I really like the videos on tsseduction. I was watching this newer one with Yasmin Lee and a guy named Tristan. I think Yasmin is really cute and it's really cool seeing a girl-next-door instead of a big porn star, so I totally thought I'd be into the video. But this Tristan guy is totally gay acting. I don't know what it is. He doesn't have some super gay lisp. But the guy acts gay. And watching a girl with a gay guy is totally weird. I wanna watch tgirls with straight guys.

I was just watching that video and it made me think of all this so I just thought I'd give my opinion on it if anybody cares.

That's simply it!

Sexual orientation is more than liking someone's gentials. It's the whole package. Some (I daresay most) people will be too hung up on the fact that a gorgeous shemale has a penis to find her attractive; others will see an attractive woman with a penis and say "Wow, she's hot".

Interesting thread this! The whole 'tranny and gay' thing has only recently appeared within our culture. I don't know why this conundrum suddenly started to appear in the last forty years or so. It seems that, although we kid ourselves that we are now all 'liberated' and open about our sexualities we are actually more inhibited than we were back in the victorian era!
Until we became 'modern' sex with same genders and/or transgenders was just what it was, fun and sex.
We need a 'bi-sensual' revival and ditch the old 'bisexual' chestnut. That causes nowt but grief.
As for me? I find trannies sexy as hell, so much so that I became one myself! Nah, seriously, I feel that if you find trannies attractive, then enjoy it, don't worry about sexual orientation obstacles.

Good point! I guess to me the penis takes on the gender of its "owner". I don't know how else to express it.
